    The [Narrative Data Collaboration Platform](https://app.narrative.io) API is
    organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs,
    accepts form-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and
    uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.



    The current version is a pre-release beta.  It may result in unexpected
    behavior and there may be breaking changes in future releases up to the 1.0
    release.

  - name: Access Rules
    description: >-
      Access rules let data providers control who can purchase their data and
      the terms of purchase.


      The `access-rules` API allows you to manage access rules for your
      datasets.

  - name: Agent Conversations
    description: >-
      Build LLM-driven workflows that can call MCP tools, ask the caller for
      input, and return structured answers.


      A conversation pins a model, a system prompt, and a tool catalog. Each run
      sends the model a user message (or

      a batch of tool outputs from a previously-paused run); the model decides
      whether to answer directly, call a

      server-side tool (resolved by the platform via Model Context Protocol), or
      call a client-side tool (which pauses

      the run with `requires_action` and waits for the caller to reply).

  - name: MCP Connections
    description: >-
      Connect external (non-Narrative) MCP servers so agent runs can call their
      tools with the

      calling user's own OAuth authorization.


      A connection is created interactively: `POST /mcp-connections` runs OAuth
      discovery and

      Dynamic Client Registration against the server and returns a consent URL;
      the user authorizes

      in a browser; the authorization server redirects to `GET
      /mcp-connections/callback`, which

      stores the authorization code and sends the browser on to the Narrative
      app; the app calls

      `POST /mcp-connections/complete` with the user's own bearer token, which
      exchanges the code and

      marks the connection `connected`.


      That last step is authenticated on purpose. The callback is public — it's
      a cross-site browser

      redirect, so no bearer reaches it — so it is not allowed to complete
      anything. Only the user

      who started the flow can turn the stored code into a token.


      Tokens are stored encrypted and used server-side — they are never returned
      by the API. Once

      connected, reference the connection by id from an agent run's
      `mcp_servers[].connection_id`.
  - name: App Invites
    description: >-
      App invites allow applications to create one-time, shareable links on
      behalf of their users. These links

      enable users to invite third parties who do not have a Narrative account
      to perform actions within the

      application.


      For example, a Narrative user can send an invite link to a third party who
      then completes a Pinterest

      OAuth flow and creates a connector profile in the inviter's account,
      allowing the inviter to deliver

      audience data to the third party's Pinterest account without the third
      party needing a Narrative account.


      This API is intended to be used by applications (via app client
      credentials) to create and manage invites

      on behalf of their users, which can then be shared with invitees.
  - name: Apps
    description: >-
      Apps are applications bundled with a UI that can perform various actions
      on behalf of a user utilizing the Narrative API.

  - name: Access Tokens
    description: >-
      System Access Tokens are long-lived bearer credentials for calling the API
      without a user present.


      A token belongs to a company, carries an explicit list of permissions, and
      expires on a date you choose — at

      least a day out and at most a year. `admin` access cannot be granted to
      one.


      `POST /access-tokens/tokens` is the only endpoint that returns the
      credential. Everything after that works in

      terms of the token's id: the list, get and update responses describe a
      token without ever repeating its

      `access_token`. If you lose it, delete the token and create another.

  - name: Attributes
    description: >-
      An attribute models a standardized data point available for sale on the
      Narrative marketplace.


      Narrative automatically turns data points from provider datasets into
      attributes so that buyers can purchase well-formed, standardized data from
      any supplier on the marketplace.
  - name: Auth
    description: >-
      API token is a crucial step for developers to securely authenticate
      requests to the Narrative API

  - name: Compute Pools
    description: >-
      Compute pools represent compute resources (e.g. Snowflake warehouses)
      provisioned within a data plane.

      Companies can manage and share compute pools, assign them to jobs, and set
      a default compute pool on data planes.
  - name: Connections
    description: Associations between connectors and datasets
  - name: Datasets
    description: >-
      Any kind of data, in any schema, can be pushed into the Narrative Data
      Collaboration Platform as a dataset exactly as it is stored in your own
      system.


      The `datasets` API allows you to manage your datasets.
  - name: Derivations
    description: >-
      Derivation rules describe how the value of one Rosetta Stone attribute can
      be computed from another — for

      example, hashing a raw email into a SHA-256 hashed email. Each rule
      carries a transformation expression that

      reads the source attribute's value through `$source`.


      The `derivations` API allows you to browse the rules your company can use
      — the ones it owns plus the ones

      shared with it through collaborators. Creating and changing them requires
      an `admin` grant on

      `attribute_derivations`, and a rule can only be changed by the company
      that owns it.
  - name: Installations
    description: Installations of Applications for a profile
  - name: Jobs
    description: >-
      Jobs represent an operation done on a given data plane. All jobs today are
      tied to a query that represents a forecast or a materialized view.


      The jobs API provides an interface for interacting with the jobs table,
      which stores various operations involving reading or writing data. This
      API allows users to retrieve detailed information about specific jobs,
      including NQL forecasts and materialized views.
  - name: Mappings
    description: >-
      A mapping is a transformation from a dataset to an attribute. Defining a
      mapping between a dataset and an attribute makes the dataset eligible to
      participate in subscriptions where a buyer is purchasing the target
      attribute.
  - name: Model Inference
    description: Model Inference
  - name: Model Training
    description: >-
      Train machine learning models on datasets, e.g. text classifiers used to
      power attribute mappings.
  - name: Models
    description: >-
      Machine learning models for training and inference.


      Models can be stored in HuggingFace or Narrative repositories and have
      configurable

      collaborator permissions for training and inference access.


      The `models` API allows you to list, retrieve, and update models
      accessible to your company.
  - name: NQL
    description: >-
      Narrative Query Language (NQL) is a specialized, SQL-inspired language
      designed to query and manipulate data within the Narrative platform. While
      it looks and feels much like standard SQL, it offers extended
      functionality and syntax that let you leverage platform-specific
      features—such as referencing datasets by their IDs, creating materialized
      views, or generating forecasts—without having to manage the complexities
      of different query engines behind the scenes. NQL queries can ultimately
      compile down to multiple underlying engines (e.g., Snowflake, Spark) to
      execute your requests efficiently in the Narrative ecosystem.
  - name: Profiles
    description: >-
      App profiles are associated with an installation. They represent a
      reference to a configuration that the app can use to save confidential
      information outside of Narrative's control.

      Profiles are currently used to configure settings for connector apps.
  - name: Resources
    description: >-
      Narrative gives you access to managed resources, like your own AWS S3
      bucket, so that you can effortlessly buy and sell data on the platform.


      The `resources` API allows you to manage your resources.
  - name: Schema Inference
    description: >-
      The `schema-inference` API analyzes submitted files to automatically infer
      and return their structure as a dataset schema.
  - name: Uploads
    description: >-
      The `uploads` API allows you to send files to Narrative and use them to
      perform tasks like creating a list or adding data to a dataset.
  - name: Usage
    description: >-
      The `usage` API enables the recording of usage events associated with a
      product.
  - name: Webhooks
    description: >-
      Webhooks push events to a URL you control instead of making you poll for
      them.


      You create a subscription with the endpoint you want events sent to and a
      filter describing which events you

      want. Two kinds of subscription exist: job subscriptions follow the
      lifecycle of Narrative jobs, and app

      subscriptions follow the events a Narrative app reports through `POST
      /apps/events`.


      Creating a subscription returns a `secret`. Narrative sends it back in the
      `X-Narrative-Secret` header on

      every delivery, and comparing the two is how you tell a real callback from
      a forged one — so store it and do

      not share it.


      Deliveries are described under the "Event delivery" webhook below. Return
      any 2xx; anything else is retried

      with exponential backoff, and because a retry reuses the envelope's `id`,
      handlers should be idempotent

      on it.
  - name: Workflows
    description: >-
      The `workflows` API allows you to create, schedule, trigger, and archive
      workflows.

      Workflows are defined using a serverlessworkflow YAML specification.
